Braveheart

Since 2000, Braveheart has sailed the Pacific, Atlantic, Indian and Southern Oceans in support of Marine Based Expeditions.

Braveheart has carried National Geographic divers to Antarctica, research divers from the world’s universities and museums to the Marquesas, Tuamotus, Kermadecs, Pitcairn and Henderson, cameramen to Antartica to film the setting for the film Happy Feet, and ham radio operators to nearly every remote island in the Southern Ocean.

Braveheart has been, and continues to be a supply ad support ship for the New Zealand Government at Raoul Island and the British Government at Pitcairn Island.

With a crew filled with enthusiasm, Braveheart has sought out remote surf breaks, unknown fishing eldoradoes and reefs to delight the hearts of every diver.
